[PD] Meet up in London?
As far as I can see there are no meet ups in London. I would be keen to hook up with other PDers. I just wanted to see if there were other people out there who wanted to do the same?

Re: [PD] Balloon Project
I'd be interested in the results if you put the camera on the ceiling, having it film from a bird's eye view. Although the use of gravity is interesting, it makes it difficult for you to have multiple balloons in the air. Another idea may be to counteract gravity by filling the balloons with a certain amount of helium. I like the idea a lot though - would be interested to see its future developments :) On Sat, Sep 3, 2011 at 8:56 AM, Dan Wilcox danomat...@gmail.com wrote: See the first track: http://danomatika.com/blog/balloon-project/ I didn't record too much as it's very much a proof of concept, not really much musical depth as yet.

Re: [PD] Cool Sequencer
That's really cool, you've chosen some nice melodies to illustrate it too. Makes me think of the South Indian counting system, Konnakol. I could imagine doing a lot of different things with your patch, such as having a bang sent at the end of each sequence to retrigger a new one.

Re: [PD] Am I alone?
Composers tend to do a terrible job articulating what's relevant in their own work. I'd take what a composer professes to be interested in with a grain of salt. Perhaps in some cases but I certainly wouldn't make that a prescriptive approach. Without understand that's Steve Reich was influenced heavily by tape machinery, West African music, and Indonesian music, you can enjoy the music, but you cannot fully understand the man. There are many other examples I could give. Dom On Tue, Feb 1, 2011 at 8:34 AM, Jonathan Wilkes jancs...@yahoo.com wrote: Well, their ideas behind the music are their ideas behind the music.

I think it was Miles Davis who said music was like food, eat the stuff you like, leave the stuff you don't.

Ok, let's say I follow all the links posted on a mailing-list, and all I find are tracks in which I want to fast-forward through the seemingly randomly-arranged noises until I get to the beginning of the «real stuff», and eventually I can't fast-forward anymore because I'm already at the end. What do you call this ? When is one allowed to generalise ? (btw obviously I'm not talking about pd-list !) Can we even define what music is? Depends on the level on which you expect to define it. You'd have more chances if you try to define it on a sociological/psychological level. I think it's ok to have a personal moral view of what music should or should not be. For me, when you have a sense of what is right and wrong in music, that is a sort of morality. That's usually called beauty, ugliness and æsthetics, though otoh lyrics could be subjected to the same judgements of morality as books do. In my experience, basing your music on rational moralic standpoints can be restrictive to the point that you are choked. Maybe for someone else, that is a way to get organized? What do you mean by rational ? ___ | Mathieu Bouchard tél: +1.514.383.3801 Villeray, Montréal, QC ___ Pd-list@iem.at mailing list UNSUBSCRIBE and account-management - http://lists.puredata.info/listinfo/pd-list ___ Pd-list@iem.at mailing list UNSUBSCRIBE and account-management - http://lists.puredata.info/listinfo/pd-list
